At least he wasnt “armed”, but he did get a “leg” up on the cops.

Was he driving a stick? Then I’d really be impressed.

Reminds me of the episode of Reno 911.
Food window: "Officers, there are two armed men inside!"
Officers: "Well I hope they have two arms, it's hard to make a taco with only one arm."

I don’t think the prosecutions case will stand up in court. The defendant’s disarming personality will win over the jury, and the police were unable to find any of his fingerprints on the vehicle.

Or in China, Irene.
If he had no arms or legs and was lying in the ditch, you could call him Phil.
